Sunday Breakfast: A Sunny Table Set for Two

A wonderful sunny day for breakfast on the patio in autumn season.

German apple pancake with fresh peach and honey topping. Lightly drizzled with maple syrup. A special treat prepared by my lovely french wife who reads cookbooks like novels and indicates "recipes are really just good as a guideline"!

A table for two is prepared with fresh white linens.

Bought the table and linen top for $5 at a yard sale on Saturday. Two Larkin chairs for $6.50 each.

The Larkin chairs had a paper label for Factory Number 7 on the underside of the seat pan. I love the woodgrain and staining in the quartersawn oak. I have to admire the workmanship, craftmanship, and business savvy that made it possible for this chair to come into my stewardship after all these years.

All will look fine in a New England circa 1896 sheep farm farmhouse setting. Had to try them out to enjoy their contribution to peace and serenity apart from the world's mayhem. This is Living the Moment.
